    You don't want the league to be seen as a joke by playing on April 1.

    Though, the noon start for the Honda Superclasico is rough.

    Those doofuses think they battle those kids on the internet streets. The kids were born into it. They win without sinking into the sewers.

    Sunday is Easter. Can imagine teams prefer to schedule around that.

    That'll do it. I never remember that Easter exists until someone else points it out.

    It is hard enough to combat kids on the interwebs. To try to do so and call them out while some classmates are still recovering from wounds is horrendous. I think these kids know they have the floor to speak. Can't shout them down on their turf.
